Let me know your zip code and I can work you a deal out shipped.

Can you give me price on both? Do you have any pictures with the triumph logo?

So you can get an idea what the LSL's might look like, here is a pic of my bike with them. It's not the greatest pic of them, but you can get a bit of an idea how they are positioned etc.... As far as I'm concerned, everyone is going to like something different just due to what look they like. I think the one thing that every one will agree on, no matter which one they suggest, is to get sliders that have a dual mounting point. GB, LSL, Woodcraft, Sato, and a bunch of others all have dual mount points. This will help prevent them from folding and breaking something on impact or during a slide.

i dont think woodcraft have dual mounting points. and for some reason i thought dual was less stronger. i think the fact the my girl's old gsxr 600 had a no cut frame slider with something like a dual mounting and it seemed and felt weak

Will those GB Racing Bullet sliders fit on a 2006 Daytona?

[AussieAdam]

Yes, they will fit all models 06 to 12.

[SeoulMan]

+1 GB racing bundle sliders and covers.

And there are not enough "+" for being able to get them from TJ at riders discount.

Go check out T-Rex Racing. They have these solid billet ones in a real cool shape. They are also ingraved with "675R". I'm having trouble with my pics being to large to load. I got their whole package. Had a lowside, lost both mirrors on the bike. After that not a single scratch on the bike. They worked awesome. I hope this helps. I'll try again with pics.

Ok, those look boner. I'd like to understand the mounting points better, though. Plus, not sure that the squarish-ness won't cause flipping.

I went with the t rex because ive gotten rear stand, sliders for my ninja 250r, kickstand, axle sliders. To my understanding they put a lot of thought in the frame sliders they offer. The ninja 250r sliders had multiple points and was very easy to install. However i heard the mounting points are a poor choose on the 675r and not listening to them. I went ahead and bought them. I am not sure what will come of them if something were to happen. Ive seen pictures of a 675 after poor choose of placement where it ate into the engine. But i feel like i didn't make a bad choice yet. And by the way. They might look like they rub on the plastics but they dont. I think theres like 5-10mm of space.

They look pretty cool. never seen frame sliders shaped like that. after this whole thread i'm leaning more towards gb racing. i dont think i'll get the whole kit just because i'll eventually put some woodcraft case covers
